Alchemy Naturals THC and CBD Gummies Now Available in Colorado
Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - August 3, 2022) - SLANG Worldwide Inc. (CNSX: SLNG) (OTCQB: SLGWF) ("SLANG" or the "Company"), a leading global cannabis consumer packaged goods (CPG) company with a diversified portfolio of popular brands, announced today the launch of its new brand, Alchemy Naturals CBD & THC Gummies, which became available in the Colorado market and national CBD retail locations on August 1, 2022.
The Company will be replacing its current CBD gummy brand, Lunchbox Alchemy, with the Alchemy Naturals brand, to build upon its success by providing an all-natural product line with engaging new flavors in both of the CBD and THC categories. New Alchemy Naturals products include Sleep, Relief, De-Stress, Intimacy, and Daily gummies formulated with THC, CBD and other minor cannabinoids and nutraceuticals which have demonstrated the ability to support the intended effects.
In addition to launching Alchemy Naturals into Colorado's $371 million edibles market¹, Alchemy Naturals products will be sold in CBD locations located throughout the country. SLANG plans to launch into additional markets throughout the U.S. via its strategic partnership model.
Drew McManigle, Interim CEO and Chairman of SLANG, commented, "We have demonstrated a strong record of success in bringing many of today's top-performing THC and CBD brands to each of our target markets. The launch of Alchemy Naturals is a milestone achievement in our ongoing efforts to create a unique and diverse portfolio of today's most demanded THC and CBD products. It should also be noted that in less than a year, the SLANG team has formulated, developed and rolled out a high-quality edible brand which combines cannabinoids and adaptogens in a unique manner. These all-natural products offer an effective experience for consumers looking for a healthier and better tasting gummy."
McManigle continued, "SLANG has created a distinctive brand and product offering in the Colorado edibles category. With this market continuing to grow at a record pace and increasingly being recognized as the 3rd largest category behind flower and vape, with gummies being the most preferred type of edible, our ability to expand and strengthen our portfolio further build upon our leadership position in the cannabis market. Furthermore, by immediately releasing Alchemy Naturals into two different distribution channels - CBD & THC- we are strongly positioning SLANG to deliver meaningful growth and revenue going forward as we continue to expand into new geographic markets."

SLANG Worldwide Announces First Quarter 2022 Financial Results
Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - May 26, 2022) - SLANG Worldwide Inc. (CNSX: SLNG) (OTCQB: SLGWF) ("SLANG" or the "Company"), a leading global cannabis consumer packaged goods (CPG) company with a diversified portfolio of popular brands, today released financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2022. All figures in this press release are stated in Canadian dollars unless otherwise noted.
Drew McManigle, Interim CEO and Chairman of SLANG, said, "We entered 2022 as a new company, advancing a more streamlined and efficient infrastructure to more effectively operate and expand in today's largest and fastest growing cannabis markets. We are recognizing higher margin sales due to the successful implementation of our transformational growth strategy, eliminating non-performing assets and consolidating our supply chain. I am pleased to report that we have reduced our operating expenses by 32% while increasing our gross margins. I believe we will continue upon this path to recognize stronger financial results going forward and successfully scale our operations in our Core and Emerging markets."
"With a strong balance sheet in place and growing demand for our market-leading cannabis products, such as our O.pen vape cartridge, we are well positioned to build upon our leadership position in each of our target markets. In the upcoming quarters, we will continue to focus on new M&A opportunities while organically growing our most popular brands. I look forward to sharing our continued progress and the new level of growth we are set to achieve as the NEW SLANG."
First Quarter 2022 Operational Highlights and Growth Drivers:
Continued build-out of Vermont operations following the acquisition of High Fidelity, Inc. ("HiFi"), one of Vermont's largest medical cannabis companies, in August 2021, to advance the Company's ability to leverage a vertically integrated infrastructure and adding Vermont as a Core Market to become a first mover for adult use sales in the state, which is expected later this year.
Continued wind down and elimination of non-performing assets, including manufacturing operations of all SLANG branded THC products in Oregon and cultivation operations in Colorado, in order to advance its restructured growth strategy focused on cost control, operating efficiencies and an optimized infrastructure.
Advanced discussions with prospective Board Members to build upon the already strengthened management team put in place during the Company's rollout of its transformational business plan.
Strengthened the SLANG brand portfolio by implementing, rebranding and reformulating the product portfolio initiatives to increase margins in Core Markets and enhance product offerings.
SLANG's brands continued to earn market-leading positions in its core markets in Q1 2021, highlighted by O.pen maintaining its #1 ranking in the vape cartridge category In Colorado, according to BDSA.
498,476 SLANG Branded Units were sold across The SLANG Network in the three months ended March 31, 2022.
Subsequent Quarterly Operational Highlights:
Launched operations in Michigan through an exclusive strategic partnership with a leading high-quality premium cannabis brand and operator in the state in May 2022, beginning with the launch of the Company's best-selling, premium vape produce line, O.pen Daily Strains.
Launched operations in Maryland through a strategic partnership with Trulieve Cannabis Corp. ("Trulieve"), a leading and top-performing cannabis company based in the United States, in May 2022. This is the third market that SLANG has entered in partnership with Trulieve.

EBITDA of ($2.36 million) in Q1 02022, compared with ($4.0 million) in Q1 2021. The improvement in EBITDA is primarily attributable to a reduction in share-based compensation payments offset by a decrease in gross profit and an increase in salaries & wages and consulting and subcontractor expense.

Non-IFRS Measures
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Branded Unit volume are non-IFRS financial measures that the Company uses to assess its operating performance. EBITDA is defined as net earnings (loss) before net finance costs, income tax expense (benefit) and depreciation and amortization expense. Management defines Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA adjusted for other non-cash items such as the impact of unrealized fair values, share based compensation expense, impairments, one-time gains and losses, and one-time revenues and expenses. See the heading "Key Performance Indicators" in the Q1 2022 MD&A for a description of how Branded Unit volume is calculated. This data is furnished to provide additional information and are non-IFRS measures and do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS. The Company uses these non-IFRS measures to provide shareholders and others with supplemental measures of its operating performance. The Company also believes that securities analysts, investors and other interested parties, frequently use these non-IFRS measures in the evaluation of companies, many of which present similar metrics when reporting their results. As other companies may calculate these non-IFRS measures differently than the Company, these metrics may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. We caution readers that Adjusted EBITDA should not be substituted for determining net loss as an indicator of operating results, or as a substitute for cash flows from operating and investing activities.

press release
SLANG Worldwide Announces Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2021 Financial Results
Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - April 28, 2022) - SLANG Worldwide Inc. (CSE: SLNG) (OTCQB: SLGWF) ("SLANG" or the "Company"), a leading global cannabis consumer packaged goods (CPG) company with a diversified portfolio of popular brands, today released financial results for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021. All figures in this press release are stated in Canadian dollars unless otherwise noted.
Key Financial Highlights:
Revenue from continuing operations for FY 2021 was $37.8 million, compared with $25.5 million in FY 2020, representing a 48% increase year-over-year. The primary driver of the sequential year-over-year growth was due to increased revenues associated with the acquisitions of Allied Concessions Group, Inc. ("ACG") and High Fidelity, Inc. ("HiFi") completed on December 31, 2020 and August 11, 2021, respectively.
Gross profit of $15.1 million (40% gross margin) in FY 2021, compared with $12.7 million (50% gross margin) in FY 2020, representing a 19% increase year-over-year.
Adjusted EBITDA of ($4.97 million) in FY 2021, compared with ($5.47 million) in FY 2020. The increase of the Adjusted EBITDA is primarily attributable the increase in revenue and gross profit associated with the acquisition of HiFi in August 2021.1
$20.83 million restricted and unrestricted cash balance as of December 31, 2021, compared to $6.61 million at December 31, 2020. This includes the Company's recently completed term-loan financing with participation from Trulieve Cannabis Corp. ("Trulieve"), a leading and top-performing cannabis company based in the United States, and two existing significant shareholders of the Company, Pura Vida Investments and Seventh Avenue Investments, for aggregate gross proceeds of $17.3 million U.S.
Drew McManigle, Interim CEO and Chairman of SLANG, said, "Our dedicated efforts to streamline our operations and redefine our core and emerging markets strategies have already taken hold as we are recognizing stronger opportunities to drive profitable revenue growth in 2022. We are a different SLANG today than we were at the beginning of 2021, strategically expanding our brand and product portfolio while consolidating our supply chain assets, allowing us to effectively meet consumer demand and achieve stronger unit economics in our core and emerging markets."
"Our ability to rapidly eliminate our weaker performing Oregon operations and strategically enter new emerging markets has been integral to our near and long-term growth. In the second half of 2021, SLANG acquired High Fidelity / Ceres, one of Vermont's largest medical cannabis companies, and through our key partnership with Trulieve, we secured our entry into Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Massachusetts and Maryland, providing us with a number of key growth opportunities that we are now advancing upon in 2022. By winding down our Oregon operations, we are recognizing strong cost savings that are already supporting our ability to rapidly and efficiently expand our operational footprint."
"Further supporting our operational transition has been the strengthening of our strategic partnership with Trulieve as we entered into a $17.3 million term-loan with Trulieve and our existing shareholders Pura Vida and Seventh Avenue Investments. This financing shows the confidence and commitment our strategic partners have in the new management team as we execute our growth strategy to drive shareholder value while transforming SLANG into a leading player in the cannabis industry," concluded McManigle.
Operational Highlights and Growth Drivers:
The Company began sales to new Emerging Markets through its partnerships with Trulieve in Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Massachusetts, and Maryland and with Natura Life + Science in California.
In August, the Company completed its acquisition of HiFi, one of Vermont's largest medical cannabis companies, adding Vermont as a new Core Market. HiFi is vertically integrated and its operations include a 28,000-square-foot cultivation, production, lab, and retail distribution facility.
In October, the Company entered the West Virginia and Pennsylvania markets through a strategic partnership with Trulieve. As previously announced, Trulieve obtained exclusive access to the entire SLANG portfolio of products and products, which are already available in all Trulieve locations in the states of Florida and Massachusetts. The solidified partnership provides SLANG with a range of significant growth opportunities in several markets, and the Company expects its products to be available on the shelves in Pennsylvania and West Virginia by Q2 2022 and Q3 2022, respectively.
In November, SLANG completed a term-loan financing (the "Loan Transaction") agreement with its strategic partner Trulieve, two existing significant shareholders of the Company, Seventh Avenue and Pura Vida, and other investors for gross proceeds of $17.3 million USD. The Loan Transaction represents a pivotal moment for the Company strategic growth strategy, as it furthers its efforts to complete the development and integration of the Vermont operations, improve operational efficiencies, drive future revenues, and reduce capital expenditures. Additionally, Drew McManigle was appointed Interim CEO and Chairman of the Board as part of an executive management transition to strategically reposition SLANG for profitable revenue growth.
In conjunction with the Loan Transaction, SLANG has made a strategic pivot in its Core Markets and Emerging Markets strategy to pursue geographies that are expected to provide meaningful and profitable lines of revenue. In regard to its Core Markets, the Company has decided to wind down manufacturing operations of all SLANG branded THC products in Oregon, focusing its future efforts to the profitable Core Markets of Colorado and Vermont. As for Emerging Markets, the Company maintains capital light strategic partnerships in 12 markets, allowing SLANG one of the largest U.S. distribution footprints in cannabis.
Post quarter-end, the Company announced several changes to its Management Team and Board of Directors. The changes include the enhancement of the Board of Directors through the appointment of Kevin K. Albert, a seasoned professional with significant knowledge and expertise in the cannabis industry, a deep and fundamental understanding of finance and management, and a successful track record in M&A, as an Independent Member of the Board. Mr. Albert's appointment succeeded Matt Fraser's resignation from the Board. As a result of the steps taken to restructure the sales and marketing departments, SLANG announced the elimination of the position of Chief Revenue Officer. In addition, the Company is in the process of adding a new sales manager for its Colorado operations and recently selected a new COO to manage its emerging position in Vermont and New Jersey.
Post quarter-end, SLANG has implemented a consolidation (the "Consolidation") of its outstanding common shares ("Common Shares") and its outstanding restricted voting shares ("Restricted Shares", and together with the Common Shares, the "Shares") on the basis of one new Share for every six outstanding Shares at the time of the Consolidation. The effective date of the Consolidation was February 28, 2022.
Fourth Quarter 2021 Highlights
Revenue from continuing operations for Q4 2021 was $8.84 million, compared to Q4 2020 revenue of $8.29 million, representing a 7% increase.
Gross profit of $4.1 million (46% gross margin) in Q4 2021, compared with $3.03 million (37% gross margin) in Q4 2020, representing a 35% increase. The increase in margin is largely in relation to the acquisition of HiFi in August 2021 bringing higher margin sales.
Adjusted EBTIDA of ($2.13 million) in Q4 2021, compared with ($1.05 million) in Q4 2020. The Company remains committed to prudently managing its operating expenses on its mission to further improve the efficiency of operations. The Company believes it will continue to see an improvement in this metric as it recognizes greater high-margin revenue from its operations.
As part of the process of evaluating the viable entities in the Company's business, SLANG completed the wind down of all manufacturing THC activities in Oregon. By discontinuing these plant touching sales and listing various Oregon assets for sale, the Company will be recognizing a reduction in operating expenditures of over $2 million annually related to those operations.
The Company made progress throughout the quarter in implementing a strategic growth plan to focus on its Core Markets of Vermont and Colorado with special attention to streamlining operations, developing new products and branding and investigating opportunities to reduce manufacturing costs, including manufacturing outsourcing and enhanced logistics.
In Q4 2021, 717,126 SLANG Branded Units were sold across The SLANG Network with Colorado generating approximately 51% of SLANG's total Branded Units volume.1 The Company's Core Markets of Colorado and Vermont saw sequential improvements in Q4 2021 when compared to Q4 2020, with Massachusetts and Washington showing increases due to the Company having entered those markets in 2021.
SLANG's brands continued to earn market-leading positions in its core markets in Q4 2021. Highlighted by O.pen maintaining its #1 ranking in the vape cartridge category In Colorado, according to BDSA.

Non-IFRS Measures
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Branded Unit volume are non-IFRS financial measures that the Company uses to assess its operating performance. EBITDA is defined as net earnings (loss) before net finance costs, income tax expense (benefit) and depreciation and amortization expense. Management defines Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA adjusted for other non-cash items such as the impact of unrealized fair values, share based compensation expense, impairments, one-time gains and losses, and one-time revenues and expenses. See the heading "Key Performance Indicators" in the Q4 2021 MD&A for a description of how each of Branded Unit volume is calculated. This data is furnished to provide additional information and are non-IFRS measures and do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS. The Company uses these non-IFRS measures to provide shareholders and others with supplemental measures of its operating performance. The Company also believes that securities analysts, investors and other interested parties, frequently use these non-IFRS measures in the evaluation of companies, many of which present similar metrics when reporting their results. As other companies may calculate these non-IFRS measures differently than the Company, these metrics may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. We caution readers that Adjusted EBITDA should not be substituted for determining net loss as an indicator of operating results, or as a substitute for cash flows from operating and investing activities.
